Even the Saudis—or rather, the small number of men who actually rule their troubled country—are giving ground in the struggle for women’s rights. For sure, the recommendations (1)_____ this week to Crown Prince Abdullah at the end of an (2)_____ round of "national dialogue" concentrating on the role of women were fairly tame. In the reformers-versus-reactionaries (3)_____ test of whether women should be allowed to drive cars (at present they cannot do so in the kingdom, nor can they travel unaccompanied, by whatever (4)_____ of motion), the king was merely asked to" (5)_____ a body to study a public transport system for women to facilitate mobility". (6)_____ mention, of course, of the right to vote—but then that has been (7)_____ to men too, though local elections, on an apparently universal franchise, are supposed to be held in October. In sum, it is a tortoise’s progress. But the very fact of the debate happening at all is (8)_____—and hopeful.
It is not just in Saudi Arabia that more rights for women are being demanded (9)_____ across the whole of the Arab and Muslim world. The pushy Americans have made women’s rights part of their appeal for greater democracy in (10)_____ they now officially call the "broader Middle East", to include non-Arab Muslim countries such as Iran, Turkey and even Afghanistan. Many Arabs have cautioned the Americans against seeking to (11)_____ their own values on societies with such different traditions and (12)_____ Many leading Muslims have (13)_____ the culturally imperious Americans of seeking to (14)_____ Is lam. The (15)_____ for more democracy in the Muslim world issued by leaders of the eight biggest industrial countries was watered down for fear of giving (16)_____ Yet, despite the Arabs’ prickliness, the Americans have helped pep up a debate that is now bubbling fiercely in the Arab world, even (17)_____ many Arab leaders, none of whom is directly elected by the people, are understandably (18)_____ of reforms that could lead to their own toppling. Never before have women’s rights in the Arab world been so (19)_____ debated. That (20)_____ is cause to rejoice.
选项
A、unprecedented
B、unquenchable
C、unorthodox
D、unmatched
答案
A
解析
unprecedented前所未有的,空前的;无前例的、unquenchable不能熄灭的;不能遏制的,止不住的、unorthodox非正统的;异端的、unmatched无敌的,无比的;不相配。本题是一道语意逻辑推导题。本题所在句的前一句话(全文第一句,即中心主旨句)的大意是:甚至沙特人也开始在女权斗争中让步。该句暗示本题所在句(全文第二句)叙述的一定是"以前未曾发生过的事情"。由此可以推断本题正确答案应该是"unprecedented",因为该形容词能够充分体现"在阿拉伯世界有关妇女权力和作用对话"本身的性质和特点。
